Upon seeing Lin Wu looking over, the snake creature hesitated for a moment, glancing at Lin Wu, then turned to Lu Guichi and started swimming towards him.
Lu Guichi wasn't the least bit afraid.
In fact, he didn't need to be afraid because the snake creature showed no intention of attacking him. After drawing close, it circled him a few times and wound its tail tip around his wrist in a rather affectionate gesture.
Clearly, it felt as close to Lu Guichi as it did to Lin Wu.
Lu Guichi watched the snake creature with a cold gaze.
The snake creature shrank its neck, reluctantly unwound its tail from his hand, hissed, and returned to Lin Wu's side, where it prodded Lin Wu with the tip of its tail.
Seeing that Lin Wu had no intention of rejecting it, the creature became lively and began circling around Lin Wu, unable to stay still.
This scene caused Lin Wu's expression to tighten slightly, as if someone had grasped her throat, making it difficult to speak.
"You..."
